How we quote for remedial sealant
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether the work is at height
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The number and length of the joints
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Whether it’s a home or a business
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.
Remedial sealant in Bicknacre, done properly
Water on the floor does not always mean failed silicone. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. If that’s what we find, we’ll tell you rather than reseal something that won’t fix it. Common call-outs are for floor or wall movement joints that have failed and products that weren’t meant for the joint, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, failed movement joints and shrunken worktop sealant.
For a small place like Bicknacre, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

How it works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. For a village or hamlet like Bicknacre, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
- Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
Before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

If you let a flat or house near South Woodham Ferrers station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. Managing a site like Priory Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Homes close to St Andrew's include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Different surfaces, different methods
Movement & expansion joints
Movement joints in floors, walls and façades need a flexible sealant set to the right depth. Failed sealant is cut out, backing rod or tape is fitted and the joint resealed.
Windows & doors
Some leaks around windows come from the wall or the window itself. We check the joint and tell you if it looks to be something else.
Why act early in Bicknacre
Adding more sealant is the usual quick fix, and it rarely works. It doesn’t grip the old layer, so the leak carries on and there’s now more to remove. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Bicknacre, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
